    Kinda pissed we're losing IndyCar to Laguna

    Thread title says it all. They signed a three year contract down there. They'll be back. Legendary track, I know. But the facility overall is a shit pile. A poor decision from a spectator viewing experience as well. Great place to watch the action in one corner but impossible to see anything...

    Mechanic steals Alaska Airlines plane in Seattle.

    Crazy stuff that hits kinda close to home. Whenever I visit my son in Western Canada I fly to Seattle and get on one of those little planes for the second leg of the trip. https://www.cnn.com/2018/08/11/us/plane-crash-unauthorized-takeoff/index.html

    If you were an American Olymic athlete....

    ....would you be willing to compete in the upcoming Olympics in Seoul, Korea? Many are considering sitting these ones out. Under these current conditions would you consider taking a pass despite a lifetime of preparation?

    Ethanol and a cactus.....(tl/dr)

    Despite my well publicized efforts to utilize the best resource available (Stabil) I seemed to have neglected my trusty Craftsman pressure washer which ultimately fell prey to "God's gift to the carburetor industry", Ethanol. This oversight cost me a $60 mixer which was ordered last week and...

    Anyone here do the NASCAR thang in Sonoma this year?

    I have never paid to attend, I will concede that up front. Between comp tix from my own employers over the years (and currently) as well as other track connections I have I become a very popular guy this time of year. I have to admit, each and every year I go there kicking and screaming but...

    Triumph Daytona 600 Power commander issues

    Title says it all. It's a 2004, former track only bike. It came with a track map making it pretty obnoxious on the street. I want to download something closer to a stock setting. This is new territory for me, I admit I don't know what I'm doing. I'm asking for either a good shop to help me sort...

    Getting Complacent

    "Complacently is the adverb form of complacent, which means "with pleasure or satisfaction." When we say someone is behaving complacently, they're doing something confidently, but perhaps without fear of potential dangers." (source: vocabulary.com) I caught myself riding complacently on my way...

    OEM rear sprocket no longer available

    The title says it all. My g/f's Yamaha 2003 TTR225 needs a new rear sprocket.....badly. No longer serviced by Yamaha. I found one (OEM) on line but it was gone by the time I could pull the trigger. Here's the thing, the factory one is steel which is preferred but seemingly impossible to find...

    OBD cable

    My 2004 Triumph Daytona spins over but won't start. The 2 of us need to chat. Where can I buy an OBD II cable for my laptop that's not from China? My expectations of finding one on a holiday weekend are low but they still exist.

    Anyone going to Bottlerock?

    Working in Napa, dealing with the gridlock. The festival atmosphere is no doubt contagious but it will be nice to point the moto out of here at the end of the day. I'm interested in hearing some stories, seeing some pics.

    KTM (50cc) centrifugal clutch replacement

    Does anyone know the trick to removing the kick start drive sprocket from the end of the crank? The vague manual I have refers to a puller but I think this thing is threaded on and there are obvious flanges on the sprocket meant for a wrench. I didn't want to force it as I wasn't certain about...
